Report of Possible Honor Code Violation

Among the most significant traditions of the College of William and
Mary in Virginia is its student-administered honor system. The essence
of the honor system is individual responsibility in all matters relating
to a student's honor. Our expectations regarding honorable conduct are
enumerated in the Honor Code, and students are entrusted to maintain the
Code and to adjudicate matters involving alleged violations of the
Code.

The Honor Code is an enduring tradition at the College with
documented history that originate as far back as 1736. Today, students
administer the Honor Oath to each student upon matriculation, and
students lead the College's efforts to educate students, faculty, and
administration on the relevance of the Code and its application to
students' lives at the College. Students administer the Code through six
Honor Councils and the Council of Chairs.
